New probesysfs/mtdev input provider (linux/ubuntu only)
We've introduced a probesysfs input provider, that searching through sysfs all multi-touch hardware available, and automatically create a mtdev binding to each of them, or hidinput if mtdev failed.
The mtdev is a stand-alone library which transforms all variants of kernel MT events to the slotted type B protocol. The events put into mtdev may be from any MT device, specifically type A without contact tracking, type A with contact tracking, or type B with contact tracking. More information are available on the mtdev website
You can remove your hidinput line in your ~/.pymt/config, and replace with:
[input]
device_%(name)s = probesysfs
device_%(name)s = probesysfs
Probing is done at every launch of PyMT. If you don't want to do that, just declare staticly every device you have.
